What a striptease! Victoria Silvstedt unveils her sensational curves in tiny turquoise bikini

Victoria Silvstedt isn't shy when it comes to undressing in front of strangers.

Pulses must have quickened as the blonde Swedish model sat down on her lounge chair and proceeded to remove her dress on the crowded beach in sunny Miami, Florida.

Victoria - who arrived on the sand wearing a grey striped knit mini dress and carrying flip flops and a taupe handbag - had successfully squeezed her hourglass figure into a turquoise bikini.

The 38-year-old model-actress-singer flaunted everything she's got from her tousled long platinum locks to her bare feet.

The former Playboy Playmate even brought some reading material - the erotic novel Fifty Shades of Grey by E.L. James.

She sat astride her lounge chair on an orange towel and would alternately read a little and gaze out to sea wearing a contented expression.

Over her head: Victoria almost had the dress off

Wearing large frame brown-tinted shades, Victoria was having a marvelous time and even splurged on a frosty pina colada cocktail at one point.

Other than a watch, the five foot 10 stunner wore no other jewelry to adorn her tanned and toned body, but was sporting a pretty French manicure on her hands and dark mauve polish on her toes.

The model was obviously enjoying some time to herself in Miami, which is one of her favourite haunts.

Victoria, who was born in Skelleftehamn, Sweden, has enjoyed an eventful modeling career since she became Miss Sweden, working for fashion houses such as Chanel, Christian Dior, Giorgio Armani and Givenchy.

No wonder that she caught the eye of Playboy magnate Hugh Hefner who featured her in his sexy magazine and named her Playmate of the Year 1997.

Her romantic life has been almost as exciting as her career, having been linked to Pamela Anderson's ex-husband, Tommy Lee and George Best's model son Calum Best.

Chilling out: Victoria enjoyed a frozen and fruity pina colada too

Victoria, who speaks English, French, Italian and her native Swedish, met TV host Chris Wragge in 1997 when he interviewed her for Entertainment Tonight.

The couple wed in 2000 and moved to New York's SoHo neighbourhood in 2004, but split up three years later and have yet to officially divorce.

For the last five years, the blonde bombshell has been dating wealthy property developer Maurice Dabbah, despite that stands several inches shorter.
